We need your photos!!!
Please read this ENTIRE post BEFORE submitting your photo. Especially the part about photo file quality!!
Submission deadline is 10/31/2013!
Rules for submission:
Follow these rules very carefully! If any rule is ignored or information requested is missing, your entry will be discarded.
- Quality - THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!! The image file must be of a substantial quality in regards to DPI (eg. 300) and Resolution (eg. 1760x1168). The higher these numbers are, the better it will look when printed, especially on a calendar. You'll probably need a 2.1 megapixel camera or better, set at the highest quality setting possible.
A good clue to picture size is the size of the photo file. If the file is greater than 2,000 bytes (or 2MB), then it is likely big enough. Any smaller, is likely unusable!
*** THIS IS THE NUMBER ONE REASON PHOTOS ARE NOT SELECTED!! *** If your photo is not the proper size, it will be rejected no matter how pretty it is! - Artfulness - The image should be tasteful and free of anything that would detract from the Vette. For example, no people, no other cars, no business signs. Examples of good backgrounds are: open fields, a park, a tree-lined 2-lane road, your driveway, etc.
- Framing - Framed so that the entire Vette is in the picture. It can be taken from any angle except straight on of the rear.
- Scenery - The prettier the background, the better. Plus, keep in mind that we'd like to have season appropriate photos. For example, a background of trees turning color in the fall; trees and flowers blooming in the spring; snow covered roadway in the winter, etc.
- You may not submit an entry for the 2014 calendar if you were featured in the 2012 C4VR Member calendar.
- You may send One (1) to Three (3) photos.
- In the body of your email, specify the following information:
- Your C4VR Member Name (name with which you log into the site)
- Model Year
- Exterior Color Name
- Engine Type (eg. L48) and/or Size (eg. 350/174hp)
- Any special type (eg. Collector's Edition, Silver Anniversary, etc)
- Year Purchased
- Where photo was taken, if you think it is worthy of mention
- How you want your name to appear
- How you want your location to appear
- Your C4VR Member Name (name with which you log into the site)
The more of these criteria that you meet, the more likely your photo will be used.
If you have any questions, please email PM me.
WHERE TO SEND YOUR SUBMISSION:
Send your submission to: CalendarREMOVETHIS@C4VetteRegistry.com

Good point. The text in the message at the top of this thread is a copy of the one from last year (with years changed). I'm hoping by getting the word out earlier this year (by 3 or 4 months) that there will be plenty of time to get enough entries. So, please start sending them in!

Adam, When do we find out when which entries made the cut ?

Here is my Corvette from many angles. My photobucket link
below shows 18 pictures in detail. If you would like me to send them to you in
the largest format you permit, just let me know. I just thought it would be
easier for you if you wanted to pick and choose any photo and size it
from the photobucket link to accommodate your needs (that is, if my vette was picked).
